BM WORLD 1283 Report post Posted April 18, 2010 (edited) went down to taupo with the bmw car club this weekend , driver traing day . took the e36 328i down (e28 m5 engine still in bits) got to do some laps with racing ray williams in the passenger seat . was a lot of fun , with him yelling instructions . even managed to spin us around was hard trying to keep the e36 from sliding with its cheap junk kingstar tyres .

Ian 535 0 Report post Posted April 18, 2010 (edited) Hey guys, that was me in the red car which was fast catching up on Brent in the first pic showing me and then catching him a second time in the later pic of me fast coming at him again. Ha ha, perhaps not quite like that but it was his 'good kind' wife taking those pics. And yeah, if you guys want to skill up so you can keep to an E36 328 or a M3 kicking red E28 (I passed one, film to prove it) then get yourselves to the Driver Training days. Racing Ray got a further 2 or 3 secs off my time around Taupo. In some ways I like it better than Hampies. I just wish Taupo track was nearer Ak.

Ian 535 0 Report post Posted April 18, 2010 Yep its a sweet example. Very origional in most ways and the changes made are subtle but effective. I'm not into slamming or sacking good cars. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ian 535 0 Report post Posted April 18, 2010 Pics never seem to do justice to just how fast you're driving. In the short front straight showing us driving by on the track, we were getting to little over 140kmh. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Driftit 2078 Report post Posted April 18, 2010 Wish I was able to get down there in my series car. But I don't have a passenger seat or tow car at the moment. Need to find more speed around that track. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
